The ever present green in thousands of shades, cool and fresh as
morning light; turquoise brushstrokes that are dream-inducing lakes,
waterfalls crashing hundreds of meters down into the sea ? this is the
natural canvas of Flores, made even more alluring by the echo of
tranquility enjoyed in former times. There are the whirling grindstones
of a water-mill, the crystal clear waters of the sea, rich in fish,
kilometer of hydrangeas setting off the beautiful landscape and the
delicate transparency of the flowers crafted by human hands.
